  • Note to James, I haven't seen anything you said about Memorial Day. Where is it? Or do I not want to know? I despise spray cans! At Lowe's the only varnish I could find in a small enough container, and for outside use, …
  • 3 p.m. today is the official Moment of Rememberance. In Dec. 2000 Congress passed that resolution because we American's seem to forget what Memorial Day is really about. Please do not wish me a 'happy Memorial Day',…
  • 5 a.m. and I am up. Had to boot up which is unusual for me on a Sunday morning, but I wanted to know if the Spurs had won. Not being much of a sports fan this also is unusual for me. Heaven knows I am tired of the "Go S…
  • Took this of the 'orchid cactus', epiphyllum or whatever it is, about 9 p.m. last night. Some day I will set a chair out and watch them open as I understand it is something to see. Slow motion. Had I known I would n…
  • http://www.missouri.edu/~extgrice/nbc/ Off to read here and see if I can find either of mine. Ooohh I found this too: http://www.paghat.com/ricrac.html Is it safe for me to grow something of the devil?
  • The night blooming cactus has finally opened. Of course it was morning before I got out there with the camera. Did not notice any scent, but the other one only is fragrant right after opening so this may be the same. T…
  • http://www.historychannel.com/exhibits/memorial/index.jsp Take a look over there before you all go enjoy a cookout or shopping trip. I would love to go to Ft.Sam Vet cemetary for their program but hub will not go near t…
  • Tomorrow I need to go out and order flowers sent to our daughter. Her significant other died tonight at 6 p.m. of liver cancer. We never met him, her choice, but we were there for her when we learned of his illness. Ju…
  • Took this last night and just had to share it. This is Chandler at the butterfly drinking spot. He also jumps up at another bird bath.
  • http://www.flickr.com/photos/bonnieb/ where you can find more pictures. what's up with xanga? anyone else finding slow loads?
  • Well I learned today that the zoom doesn't go all the way across the pond. I loved the effect of the fence around the swimming pool reflecting here. This was taken in an old mobile home park that we moved into when we a…
  • Well fiddle, I did this painting (in PSP of course) and then went and reduced it too small to see the effect. OK so I came back today to do a rant about the W32 sober thing. I came back here after lunch, had not …
  • Uh oh June is fast approaching. I have to check besides the http://www.mizbee.net coming due I can't remember when I owe Xanga. Got this rather interesting email: Why Go To Church? A Church goer wrote a letter to the …
  • Touching base to show off the fine picture I got of Pookie. He is not sure about the new camera. Shiny silver. Then again the bright yellow name tag cord may be the culprit. Yesterday he ran to the back of his cage so s…
  • The day is new and I should be feeling such. Still dragging, may have something to do with being tossed out of bed with a heaving cat. Add to that sharp pain in the left ear that hit about 3 times during the night. Now w…
  • 10:59 a.m. and I am sitting here sucking on ice cubes resting from cleaning the bathroom. A small room with fake marble sink and tub surround. (which wasn't done as it is wiped down each shower). What wore me out was rem…
  • Housecleaning 101 Dirt Layers of dirty film on windows and screens provide a helpful filter against harmful and aging rays from the sun. Call it an SPF factor of 15 and leave it alone. Cobwebs Artfully draped o…
  • Our lot is about 1/2 acre but the front yard is postage stamp so it leaves the back yard huge. Since we live near a road it isn't square but tapers to a triangle in the far corner. Appreciate the good wishes. All hell b…
  • 5 a.m. and I am nothing by mouth now. I'm concerned they will not do the colon exam because the prep has not done anything as of this moment. My intestines must of absorbed the salts. I can't even bare the thoughts of …
  • Heh, found the perfect way to control my diabetes. Clear liquid diet! Even with the Gatorade that is nothing but sugar and carbs I am still at the 97 I was at dinner time. I have skipped bouillion as it is just way to s…
  • I didn't compress this and I bet if I click on it the size won't fill my page like everyone else's pictures do. Probably because I size it though. I just can't see using up all my space here with a few pictures. Bet …
  • Could take some lessons from Matthew for the use of sepia. So lets see what I really have here. These tiny tools were actually used by my husband's Uncle George and his sister's husband (both now deceased) also tuc…
  • Of all the things my dear hub brought back with him, this may turn out to mean the very most to me. On the left, my dad Kenneth, center Ralph and right the youngest, Delmar. They are now all gone. So are their parent…
  • Is it me or does xanga load photo's funny sometimes? The first attempt at this phlenopsis flower gave me the dreaded x. I should not try to photograph flowers in this room. This happens to be a white petal to the naked …
  • The dinner guests were sitting around the table discussing life. One man, a CEO, decided to explain the problem with education.He argued, "What's a kid going to learn from someone who decided his best option in life was …
  • Last night I shut down early. This morning I boot up late for me, and there is a reply from xanga tech help about the header. The url he gave didn't look what I had to use so I went in to look and feel and sure enough th…
  • Want to do something nice for a child? Go here http://www.postcardsforkids.com/index.htm and click 'current child' and get the address and send the young man a post card. Children love mail! Today had to be the worst da…
  • Yay Mommer's older daughter! Now I don't like my header so will have to re-do it. The information I got with this picture stated: This photograph shows a red Doberman kissing an exhausted fireman. He had just saved her…
